Ann Romney will be doing a “ladies luncheon” poolside at the Palo Also home of John and Elaine Chambers — he’s the CEO of Cisco Systems. It’s is co-hosted by another Silicon Valley biggied, Hewlett Packard CEO (and former GOP gubernatorial candidate) Meg Whitman, who is also a finance co-chair of Romney’s campaign.

The script:
ANN ROMNEY: “When I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, both of us just dissolved in tears.”
MITT ROMNEY: “Probably the toughest time in my life was standing there with Ann as we hugged each other and the diagnosis came.”
ANN ROMNEY: “My life was in jeopardy and I was, like, as vulnerable as a person could be. I was frightened. Mitt was frightened, but I needed him desperately.”
JOSH ROMNEY: “I think it affected my dad as much as it affected my mom.”
TAGG ROMNEY: “He really stepped up. He let her be sick, let her take the time that she needed.”
MATT ROMNEY: “My dad not only said to my mom that I’ll be there for you. I’ll do everything. You don’t need to worry, but he did that.”
CRAIG ROMNEY: “She said ‘I’m not going to be able to do the things that I used to do.’ He said, ‘I don’t care.’”
BEN ROMNEY: “This is something they would be able to meet face on and really tackle and come out better on the other end.”
MITT ROMNEY: “As long as it’s not something fatal, I’m just fine. I’m happy in life as long as I’ve got my soul mate with me.”
ANN ROMNEY: “You certainly recognize when you’re as sick as that and you’re in deep trouble, as I was in, what a true partnership means in a marriage.”

We’ll have more on the events — and the Romneys Bay Area trip — throughout the day. Stay tuned.
